FYC, I think there are more leads that are not correctly listed on polls in this series still. I think it would be worth your time to check them against some reliable secondary source that provides a listing of the stars for each movie and by extension who the lead characters are. It would catch a lot of the problems that seem to be slipping through.
ie. Mutiny on the Bounty is a 1935 Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer drama film directed by Frank Lloyd and starring Charles Laughton and Clark Gable, based on the 1932 Charles Nordhoff and James Norman Hall novel Mutiny on the Bounty.
@Peter_pbn I don't disagree. But you aren't saying you should totally disregard it, are you? It is one of about a dozen metrics one should consider. If you getting yes to almost all these, I would rethink whether you made the right call on lead character status. Certainly, if that is the only box getting checked, then the star is likely not the lead character.
Please change "Poll Suggestion" to "Live Poll" in the discussion thread title and change the settings so that it appears under "Praise" now, rather than "Idea."

Based on the plot, I would think Huw (Roddy McDowall) is the lead character of How Green Was My Valley.
